Absolutely correct Steve, NEBO was started by YOU independent of any Forum and reported on your Progmiester web site
It was a get together of like minded audio enthusiasts in the North East, yourself and AFAIK Neil Blackwood being the initial organisers.

Indeed it was Alan, you were there from the outset And every one has been a great day right up to the most recent one. Following advice given to me by a friend i decided to hand over the reigns to Rich Britton as i was finding it hard to cope with a lot of BS that was going on. Rich Britton who is far more able to deal with such psycho-babble than i am and is keeping the Nebo flag flying rather well due to being a little stronger willed than i am and doing a great job.
Call in for a coffee and a blast Alan. We must catch up.

I neglected to mention that I recieved a message from Les Wolstenholme just prior to Nebo 8 informing that he was unable to attend due to health reasons rendering him unable to travel. Needless to say he was missed and send him our best wishes for a speedy recovery.

I believe Steve is just making this point due to comments made elswhere. Some people in other places can be highly paranoid.

“Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

My first NEBO, so big thanks to Rich ... the venue was absolutely perfect for this type of event. And, of course, kudos to Steve for founding the 'tradition'. Good to meet up with some familiar faces again, and to be welcomed by a few new ones. Hopefully next time will bring out a few more 'newbies' ... tbh you couldn't wish for a friendlier bunch of people, so do give it a try if you're dithering

Anyway, apologies that I had to scoot off early, but a good friend is emigrating, and saturday evening was the last chance to see him for a long while. On the way back, I dropped Stephen off in Darlington for his bus home. In the rush, I somehow managed to drive off with his lovely Technics cdp still in the boot Sorry buddy
